HALESTORM MAKES “APOCALYPTIC” HISTORY.

Atlantic recording group Halestorm has made rock history once more as their scintillating new single, “Apocalyptic,” ascends to #1 at Active Rock radio outlets – the first time a female-fronted band has scored chart-topping hits at the format three times and to have #1 songs from two consecutive albums. “INTO THE WILD LIFE” – the GRAMMY® Award-winning hard rock band’s long awaited third studio album and follow-up to 2012’s blockbuster “THE STRANGE CASE OF…” – arrives everywhere on April 14th.

Recorded last year in Nashville with GRAMMY®-nominated producer Jay Joyce (Cage The Elephant, Eric Church) at the helm, “INTO THE WILD LIFE” is available now for pre-order at all DSPs. Exclusive physical bundles are available at the band’s official web store, with extras including pint glasses, a 2xLP yellow vinyl version of the album, and a limited edition autographed poster. For details and availability, please go to store.halestormrocks.com/pre-order.html.

“’INTO THE WILD LIFE’ is not a departure,” says Halestorm frontwoman Lzzy Hale. “It’s an invitation to all things Halestorm. Lyrically and musically, we explored everything that makes us tick. We set a new standard for this record and gave ourselves no choice other than to be unapologetically ourselves in every way. Peel away at the onion that is our third record if you dare and let us drag you deeper into our world.”

Widely acknowledged as one of modern hard rock’s most explosive live acts, Halestorm will celebrate “INTO THE WILD LIFE” with an epic US headline tour, “Carnival of Madness Presents Halestorm Powered by Monster Energy.” The trek is set to get underway April 22nd with a sold-out show at Nashville’s legendary Ryman Auditorium, and then will travel through mid-June (see attached itinerary). The Pretty Reckless and Starset will support Halestorm through June 3rd; Rival Sons and Royal Thunder will open all remaining dates. For remaining ticket information, VIP packages, and details on joining the Official Halestorm Fan Club, please visit www.halestormrocks.com.

In addition, Halestorm will take the stage at a number of upcoming festivals, including Charlotte, North Carolina’s Carolina Rebellion (May 3rd); Columbus, Ohio’s Rock On The Range (May 17th); Kansas City’s 98.9 The Rock Presents Rockfest 2015 (May 30th), among many others (see itinerary below).

In other news, Halestorm has revealed details of “To HALE and BACK…” a new 272-page hardcover photo book created by the band with photographer Rob Fenn. Fenn – who has traveled with Halestorm since 2012 – captures the band at their most intimate, vulnerable and triumphant moments, whether it is backstage, in the studio, an arena stage or on the long lonesome highway. The first 100 orders of “To HALE and BACK…” will receive a limited edition Polaroid autographed by the band. For more, please see robfenn.com/product/tohaleandback.

Released in 2012, “THE STRANGE CASE OF…” debuted at #1 on Billboard’s “Hard Rock Albums” chart while also making a top 15 entry onto the overall SoundScan/Billboard 200. The album’s exceptional success was fueled in large part by the singles, “I Miss The Misery,” “Love Bites (So Do I)” and “Freak Like Me,” the latter two which made history by ascending to #1 at Active Rock radio outlets nationwide, marking Halestorm as the first-ever female-fronted group to top the format’s airplay ranking. As if that weren’t enough, “Love Bites (So Do I)” went on to earn the band their first-ever GRAMMY® for “Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance” at 2013’s 55th annual event.

Tommy thank you for taking out some time from touring to answer some questions. BAH: Prong have been around since the late 1980's, what do you contribute your lasting success? TV: I don’t know for sure. Maybe it has something to do with when I was 11 years old I just wanted to be in a band get on stage and get the hell out of where I was. That feeling remained for a long time and it may be hard wired into me. I can’t explain a lot of it. I know I’ve wanted to get out of the whole band thing several times and I somehow get pulled back in. Success is relative though. To some I’m successful to others I’m not. I’ve made way more mistakes than base hits along the way. Me, I think I have like a .285 lifetime batting average. There’s a lot of guys way more talented than me out there. A lot of guys way more better looking. I’ve had some good breaks. I’ve also simply willed survival in the business many times. You just keep looking for pieces to finish the puzzle. BAH: What is it like when t…
